Short answer: the Tronsmart Mirtune H1. Both are rated 3.4/5 for sound quality (#24 and #23 of 63 small speakers), and the Tronsmart Mirtune H1 costs $29.99 against $64.95 for the JBL Clip 4, and with sound quality even, the cheaper one is the better buy.
The Tronsmart Mirtune H1 is the longer-running choice. A cheap waterproof clip on speaker with a long battery, app EQ, and stereo pairing. It is rated for 20 hours of battery against 10 for the JBL Clip 4. It has an adjustable EQ, which the JBL Clip 4 lacks. The catch: In Storytripper HD’s comparison many listeners found the JBL Clip 5 clearer and fuller, and Beautiful Zar DJ’s viewers preferred the Tribit PocketGo and Tribit Stormbox Micro 3.
Why pick the JBL Clip 4: A very light clip on speaker with a sturdy carabiner that hooks onto bags and belts and outlasts its rated battery. Watch for: Quite a lack of bass.
Buy the Tronsmart Mirtune H1. Both are rated the same for sound quality, and it costs $34.96 less than the JBL Clip 4.
